    Good find, haven't seen one of these in decades. IMO expensive at $25,900 and unlikely to have rolled out of the L-M dealer with dog dishes in 1970 (they do lood good tho), but this may be the best preserved 70Merrcury Marauder on the planet. Good ad in the right magazine, think they might get what they ask.

    Yeah that does look good with the Monterey pie pans. Heck, I think I'd keep em if I got this car.....

    It ain't bad - I like the interior and options....

    Personally I would change out the wheels in an instant.

    Yeppers, but a lot of those 69-70 Marauders rolled out with the factory wheelcovers(full) in addition to the wheels you pictured. I think even by '70, those wheels were optional vs. standard equippage on the X100, but if you were ordering, you could have your choice. I think they used those piepans in various years from like 64-69, but I've only ever seen them on Montereys.

    Yeah. Those ‘63-‘64 ish dog dish don’t do it for me on the car. Would want the skirts and the mag type wheel covers. That kinda what changes it up to a Marauder for me. Like the blue and the interior but would want the full blown stuff.
